Not for long....
So are you based back in Blighty for now?

I am. I'm off to Morocco for a couple of days on Wednesday, but other
than that nothing planned until March.

Can I reserve about 50 grammes please

Heh. Apparently they get quite irritated (to the tune of 10 years) with
those caught in possession. So: no.

OK so the seller's first response to my complain is pretty negative.
It's a small/part time trader working out of his garage I think.
What's the general situation legally here? complicated somewhat by me
being in Belfast.

My first response is:
Full dealer Repair>Small claims court
Contact HM IR & C&E to inform them of the sales activity and suggest a 3
year forensic audit for evaded Tax and VAT.

But then I'm a ****

Red death, to set you free

 

That's not bright of him. He seemed pretty straight to me and Timo, and
his FB is good. I'm willing to bet he never roadtested it properly.

Exactly so. He used to have a shop, apparently, races, has spare parts
made by his Thai wife's[1] rellies in Thailand, fixes up and breaks
bikes

He's a trader, and AFAIK declares himself as such.

I think in this instance I'd go for a partial refund to begin with. The
shame is that the rest of the bike is pretty good. When Timo and I
looked at it, we were impressed, but obviously neither of us rode it.

I don't think that he's likely to be doing much tax evasion. he told us
a hair-raising tale of some Ebay trader of his knowledge who got caught.
Claims he's all above board. Did he give you a proper VAT receipt? If
not, then you may have a point.

I'm pretty certain that his house won't be registered as a motor trader
with the council, so he's probably in breach there, yes.

Well, that's why you bought an RD400.

Oh cool, that'll make the airport transfers entertaining.

I'd be slightly happier if the whole thing hadn't been put together by
someone with the organisational skills of Frank Spencer...

That's slightly odd, he seemed smarter than that. But then again he
hadn't had Hog's money by then.

Austin Shackles. www.ddol-las.net my opinions are just that
Once, when the secrets of science were the jealously guarded property of
a small priesthood, the common man had no hope of mastering their arcane
complexities. Years of study in musty classrooms were prerequisite to
obtaining even a dim, incoherent knowledge of science.
Today, all that has changed: a dim, incoherent knowledge of science is
available to anyone. - Tom Weller, Science Made Stupid, 1986
